Is there a hope rear conversion kit that can change a pro 2 (non evo) rear hub from 150 x 12 to 135 x 12?

Nope. The hub body itself is wider

Raceface cranks are pretty sweet. The Mega uses a european bb like your current frame does.

Edit: Your welcome!

Will these work? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/us/en/race-face-ride-dh-double-chainset/rp-prod21873
They're cheaper than the x7 too.
Sorry, but what's the difference between a European bb and a normal one?
I'm kinda new to all this.
Thanks!

They will work but I was frankly surprised they still have ride dh cranks, and that is way too much for a crankset I believe hasn't been made in 3+ years. If you're ordering through crc, you can get Shimano SLX cranks for the same price. Lighter, new, cheaper.

European bb's are the norm. They thread in and are usually 73 mm wide on trail bikes, rarely 68 [although one bb is compatible with both of those widths].

Cool, thanks.
I didn't know that a Shimano crankset would work with a Sram groupset.

Seeing as it's been used for similar questions since the beginning, go ahead man Salute

Personally don't see the need of having one thread to ask 'what should I do' and another for 'how should I do it'

I responded to this message, which I figured was probably a response to the mechanics thread where the problem was solved. Nothing wrong with asking that question here, I just didn't see the question, only this response. Redface
